Fat transfer (fat grafting or lipofilling) is a procedure that harvests fat from one area of the body via liposuction, purifies it, and injects it into another area to add natural volume. Common treatment areas include the face, breasts, buttocks (BBL), and hands.
Turkey is a leading destination for fat transfer procedures thanks to experienced surgeons who use advanced fat processing techniques (MAFT, nanofat, micro-fat grafting) to maximize fat survival and achieve natural-looking results.
The procedure takes 1-4 hours depending on the treatment area and volume transferred. Fat is typically harvested from the abdomen, thighs, or flanks. Recovery depends on the area treated — facial fat transfer requires 1-2 weeks, while body fat transfer requires 2-3 weeks.
